Killing palmtrees

I feel so evil.

13,560 polygons.

Are palmtrees allowed to look creepy and lonely?

I wish I could afford Maya...I downloaded lots of the models, hair textures and such long before I seriously decided to buy my own software rather than use Warez...sometimes I wish I had purchased Poser and Maya.

yeah it sucks....

Learn the PLE version, and when you get good enough, then buy maya unlimited.... I think its worth it if its what you reall want to do in life. Its what i want to do anyway

If you learn the program really well, you could enter a competition and win a free copy

I hear blender is good, and ive seen some cool stuff done with it. Give it a try and see if you like it
